The event, which will be held at six locations, including Cyberjaya (Central Zone), Johor Bahru (Southern Zone), Penang (Northern Zone), Kota Kinabalu, Kuching, and Kota Bharu (Eastern Zone), aims to strengthen the implementation of the Industrialised Building System (IBS) for private construction projects, in line with the Ministry of Housing and Local Government’s Secretary-General’s Circular No. 4 of 2024, which comes into effect on July 10, 2024.

The Deputy Secretary-General of the Ministry of Works emphasised the importance of full government and construction industry involvement and CIDB’s role in regulating the implementation of IBS by the Malaysian Construction Industry Development Authority Act 1994 (Act 520).
